      I think he will be huge and reach Harlow popularity and then blow up even more. Real rap is back and kids will love his engaging and positive message wrapped in such a catchy flow and creative, intelligent and passionate storytelling. Let’s hope mental stays healthy, drugs don’t get in the way and that he sticks to his Craft which is beautiful and refreshing.
